I hope someone can help, I didn't envisage having this problem!
Right, my little boy seemed very lonely and sad as of late. So not too long ago I picked up a little rescue girlfriend for him.
He's about 8 months old, and the new girlie is 4 months. It really seems to be love, but we have a slight problem. He has a little TOO much love for her, if ya know what I mean. :shock:
He tries to mount her after about ten minutes of being around her. There's no nastiness involved I'm just a bit worried of him either getting stroppy or hurting the poor lass. So far I've just been saying "oi" to him, moving him and telling him to mind his manners. :? But he's back to it within 5 mins or so.
He's twice her size.
So my question is, do I just let them sort themselves out, or is there some other thing to do? I forgot to mention, he was neutered a couple of months ago so there won't be any babies either way.
I hope someone can shed some light, I don't know if it's some dominance thing or if he does just fancy her, and I'm not sure what to do! They aren't together all of the time yet, they're seperate but so that they can smell eachother most of the time, and they're out together a few times a day too for as long as possible (supervised.)
I feel so bad asking you guys questions here all the time and not having any knowledge to put back into the place.
Thank you all so much for your help in the past and hopefully for any advice you can give me regarding this.
